It was a kriptonite new york lock was behind a 10 foot locked gate, chained to some scaffolding the bastards just took it appart.

They took the scaffolding apart to get a bike? Wow, dedication.
Sucks loads, but you've got to half admire the persistence. It's also the last time I lock to scaffolding.

anyone ever heard of someone finding a thieving bastard with their bike and beating
them horribly i'd love to hear some stories i bet there are a few around.
a smackhead told me he was going to stab me once, when i tricked him into giving me my
friends bike he stole and i rode it ride in front of two policemen that i had just called, lol!
he threw a knife in a bin down the road 5 minutes after the police gave him a caution because
he only "found" the bike.
crazy shit.
oh and two weeks later i saw him getting stamped on for punching a kid in the face with a fishing hook in his hand.
ambulance came he was sick couldnt breath and a baseball bat got a little bit of involvement to.
good times -

best i heard was on the internet somewhere .
someone caught a thief red handed, D-locked his neck/head to a railing, invited mates down to piss on him, walked off...
(you aint going to be able to lever a D-lock off with someone's neck in it!) -
• #14
LOL! that is brilliant.
pissing on??? i thought a seatpost up the bum would be a better punishment.what is he going to do?
"hello is that the police ive just been raped by a seatpost"
"what....why?"
"i was stealing someones bike"
"hahaha piss off" -
• #15
Lois, with that seatpost up his bum it reminds me of your former nickname, shitting crikey!
I think i fancy using a kryptonite mini for the neck of those cnuts.

Joe - they took the scalfolding apart not the lock. Theres not any lock that will prevent that.
The best current lock you can get is probably the Krypto NYC D-lock IMHO. Abus also make some mighty fine locks. But nothing is going to prevent a determined tooled-up theif.

what model condor was it man?
there's a guy on gumtree selling one. -
• #20
oh right sorry ill read a bit more before asking sily questions!
ill prob get one then. i have some shitty hryptonite cable thing
that my dad doesnt use any more and i feel pretty unsafe locking my bike
with it. i dont really want to spend 50+ on a lock but i expect i would feel
like i should of if my bike is pinched! NY's are bastard heavy though! -
• #21
No that one on gumtree is not mine saw that so posted a reward notice for mine
-
• #22
Got no pics either only had it 6 months, luckily did not pay full wack for it got it off Fish from condor
-
• #23
joe_b, Kryptonite NYs are bastard heavy and expensive for the same reason they keep your bike secure. Not much getting round that I'm afraid.

• #24
